Bug Description

ubuntu 17.04 unity7

webbrowser crashes are not reported, i keep seeing this message whenever the webbrowser crashes "your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers". i'm not sure how much free memory it needs but it's the only app that does that, for others the report works fine

see attached screenshot

I’m occasionally seeing that when I run webbrowser-app in a VirtualBox VM. Never seen it on my work laptop, but that one has 16GB, which is plenty.
How much memory overall does your system have?

Could it be precisely because you have chrome running at the same time, thus leaving no available RAM for apport to report the crash? Or other memory-hungry apps?
